Not even one picture can really capture the mess this week feels like it has been already and it is only Wednesday! Labor Day came to an interesting end when 5 storms passed through Cherokee county, leaving homes destroyed, cars flipped over on the highway, and buildings with roofs torn off thanks to an F1 tornado that came down 2 exits south, and didn't stop for 5 exits north of us, and missing our neighborhood by less than a mile! Thanks to T.S Lee, we had a scary afternoon, but as of this morning have been enjoying temps in the 50s!!! I am really hoping as I sit here with my door and windows open and day two of no a/c on, that this isnt some mean joke mother nature is playing on us and we will get some fall in here now and get a break from our record busting scorching drought summer we have suffered through!
Yesterday I took a mental day off. I didn't get to the gym, but I did get some cleaning done around the house, and then spent the whole rest of the day and into the night planted in front of the T.V with the kids just relaxing. The doors were open, we were under blankets, and I made peanut butter cookies. (I had 2). It was a lovely day!
This morning I got the kids off to school as always, even though Laci is dealing with a cold, or allergies, or something currently, and then hit the gym. I came home soaked and wiped out, and now I am planning another low key day. I think I may be on some kind of mental strike!
This morning Christopher informed me he has a wiggly tooth, and that when it comes out he is going to put ketchup on it, now in my head I am thinking bc he wants to play a prank on me saying its a bloody tooth....but then he says..."so the tooth fairy will like it better when she eats it!"....Oh boy...poor thing....it has occured to me a lot lately that common sense may not be this boy's finer talent in life....I explained that she does not EAT the teeth but merely collects them...and he laughed and realized how odd that would be if she did indeed eat them "like on a sandwich"....sigh....LOL!
Well, I guess for now I will get back to my doing nothing while working on a list to start packing for Florida in 12 days! I am so excited! I cannot wait to be on the beach fishing and playing with the kids and hanging out with my grandparents! This is going to be great!! (now I just need to hit the lottery! ha!)
Happy Wednesday!
